Xela Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 The company I work for has an internal phone book with pictures on each person's profile. I use it to determine how nice I'm going to be to people. Ha! Exactly the same as me. Voicemail from a female colleague in another office? Open Office Directory, look at picture and decide whether to call (hot) or send a blunt email (old boiler). I managed to upload a picture of Robert Downey Jr as my pic on the company intranet for a while before it was taken down by the humourless shits in HR. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use it to determine how nice I'm going to be to people. We used to have pictures in Outlook but the CEO decided it probably wasn't a good idea to have a picture of a manager's smiling face on an email delivering bad news.

limpid Posted February 10, 2015 Administrator Share Posted February 10, 2015 BOF's point stands though. 'Average' DOES mean 'not very good'. It also means 'not very bad'. So what you are saying is that 'average' means 'average'. As opposed to mode, median or mean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adw95 Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Liverpool vs. Spurs having it's own BBC live text page rather than being lumped in with the other 3 league games as if it's some huge event Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisp65 Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Getting a call at 5:28 when I finish at 5:30 Balls. I finish at 5pm (officially) Try never to answer a call after 3pm. Just to be safe. My phone is paid for by the company, the theory being that I'm always on call. I get a free smart phone and all the twitter and flickr I can handle. They get access out of hours. That I've disabled voicemail and have the ringer permanently on silent is irrelevant. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevo985 Posted February 12, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted February 12, 2015 Now, I don't particularly care what happens in the Eurovision Song Contest. It's cringeworthy bollocks at the best of times and I do my best to avoid seeing a second of it every year. But... I hear the next one will include Australia. WTF?

BOF Posted February 12, 2015 Moderator Share Posted February 12, 2015 they're in the play offs against those other europeans, Azerbaijan and IsraelAt least Azerbaijan, as a former Soviet state, has some claim and does also actually straddle Eastern Europe. Israel is a joke though, in much the same spineless way that UEFA accepted them in after Asia wouldn't have them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisp65 Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 I'm sure you already know, but Barry Town beat Shamkir of Azerbaijan home and away in a Champions League Qualifier. The match, in Baku, was the furthest Barry ever travelled for a competitive first team fixture, Barry winning both legs 1:0 Barry were knocked out in the next qualifying round by FC Porto, despite winning the home leg 3:1 had Barry pulled off an away win or draw they'd have been in the Champs League proper! As a glory hunter, I gave the Baku trip a swerve, but was there for Porto home and away! carry on... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisp65 Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 t'was a fitting tribute ---------- 13 years ago for the Porto gig! bleedin' nora jeesh, fruit flies like bananas and all that had some good times - I organised the fans bus to the Boavista game one year we got back 3 days late (superbock lager with tumblers of sherry as chasers) and I was grounded by my missus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
